[@wakeywakey2910]

Just to say THANK YOU for this! I had flashes and floaters come on suddenly, (I am 56) two days before, and went to my optician straight away that day after watching your video. They did an in depth analysis and thankfully, found nothing wrong! In fact, they commented on how healthy my eyes are! It was odd seeing such an in depth picture of the inside and back of your eyes! This was four days ago and they are still there, one floater and occasional small 'flashes' around the corner of my eye, nothing really has changed, nor gotten worse, so am hoping it will be less noticeable as time progresses. My optician did say that these things can be brought on by stress and lack of sleep, which I have been suffering from of late. So thank you so much and to others, don't be scared to make that appointment!

[@EyeSchoolwithDrD]

The fact that one person saw this and got their eyes checked is why I do it. 😃😃😃 doesn’t it feel great to know you’ve got a healthy retina?! Thank you for watching!

[@wakeywakey2910]

@@EyeSchoolwithDrD Great, am so pleased you are doing these videos. What I also liked is the way in which you presented this information. I did get a bit worried at first, but then I got this quite excited feeling once I made the appointment and SO PLEASED to note I was in good eye health. Since then this has also led me to make other healthier lifestyle changes, as this came on as I was 'thinking about' these changes and it was almost like the Universe was saying to me/giving me that little push to say....'do it...make those healthy improvements...' and am feeling way better all round. Strange how things work out. Many thanks again :-)

[@bluejay9890]

Same thing happened to me! My optometrist diagnosed me with posterior vitreous detachment.

[@auricia201]

I have this since I was teen! But I only became near sighted in my 20's.. I never looked or asked about it, but it is nice to finally know what it is!

[@pokemonstah401]

Can these happen from chronic anxiety stress and extreme lack of sleep and dry eyes/near sighted?

[@ladydy9563]

I developed a floater in my right eye and it came with flashes in the night, but the flashes went away and the floater is lessening. I hope you were talking about flashes not going away that would be a big concern? I think it is the bio-flavanoids in the pineapple that give nutrients to the eye & floaters than appear less noticeable.

[@jayelliot]

No matter if they flashes went away I would recommend going to an ophthalmologist. You could have had a minor retinal tear and you won’t know it unless they dilate your eyes and look. It’s a relatively easy fix with a laser procedure. If not treated, the vitreous can build up behind the hole and push more of the retina to detach.

[@keyaireeboos7026]

I suspect that excessive sugar consumption causes those (bright white flashes). Sugar found in mainstream candy bars, soft drinks, white sugar that people put in their coffee, donuts, cakes, etc, etc. Restrict yourself to a sweet treat once or twice a week; and the sweetener that it contains should be RAW sugar, NOT white sugar. Raw honey, real Maple Syrup and Rice Syrup are ok; there are lots of organic candy bars now; and you'll find these things in organic food stores, like Whole Foods Market; and many main stream food stores carry these things. (White sugar) is dangerous and destructive.

[@imnotsurewhy]

Why is there still not one invasive and safe treatments for eye floaters if doctors know that they are invasive. This is incredibly frustrating. Every optometrist will say that there's nothing you can do to make them disappear. It really sucks that no one is researching safer ways to treat them.

[@stevedave5867]

They can be extremely debilitating and destructive to ones life. I've personally had a suicide attempt due to the level of stress caused by them. It's easy to say ' thry aren't harmful ' when in reality they stop you enjoying basic things in life like going for walks, to the beach, playing sports.

I just started having floaters in my right eye but only notice them when driving or in the sun, will try the pineapple

[@cellgrrl]

I would like to add that retinal detachments will often follow the lesser known vitreous detachment that most of us will experience as we get older. Sometimes the vitreous detachment will tug on the retina and tear it. That happened to me. I saw not so much any more floaters but got frequent flashes from the side of my eye. Went to 2 eye doctors who didn't see anything wrong. Finally one said to see a retinal specialist. I did and he found my tear. We did laser surgery that minute. So, two regular eye doctors didn't catch the tear, but the retina specialist guy did. My experience suggests passing on the other doctors, go straight to a retinal specialist. They have way different equipment and ways of looking for the tear. Mine was so old it was starting to heal on its own. I was very lucky it was in a place that was at the extreme edge of my vision. I honestly can't see where I am missing my vision that I lost.

[@bluejay9890]

Holy crap! I've been seeing flashes for quite some time now and my optometrist looked at my retina and said it was fine. Now I'm worried he might have missed something. I'm going to see opthamologist next.

[@ZombieSlav]

Awesome video, glad I watched it! A word, to all of you that had floaters for a long time, think of them as an organic compound that derived from you, don't make yourself feel invaded by that. True, they can annoy and distract, but at the end of the day, you know how to overcome that, if you had them for a long time.

Pineapple treatment is a joke

[@noahjohnson6422]

I cured my floaters 100 percentage using following way in 4 months --- Most important - 3 big slices of pineapple 2times a day for 2 month then 1 slice for 1 time to avoid any side effects of pineapple overeating -- 1. Drink lots of water 2. Drink 1 glass of water before sleep & in between sleep if you awake drink water 3. Sleep for 9+ hours 1/2 + hour afternoon & sleep without pillow 4. Keep eyes always hydrated (not dry) use water to wash eye (6/7 times a day) to hydrate 5. Fasting (no food) one day per week.. fruit+water allowed 6. Don't squeeze or use fingers or any eye related exercise.. just keep natural eye movement. Should not give any stress on eye.. also don't cough heavily to avoid eye pressure 7. Avoid tv/mobile/laptop as much possible 8. Add fruit in dailt - I eat 5 fruit everyday 9. Run for 15 minutes everyday 10. Take 1 spoon of ghee everyday 11. Start Ayurvedic Treatment (mostly specialist in eye) 12. Sleep on face down posture for 1/2 hours every day

It is common knowledge that, as we age, the parietal cells of the stomach produce less HCL. It is also true that, as we age, we are also prone to eye floaters; moreover, an older person ( with, coincidentally, less stomach acid ) is more apt to RETAIN the eye floaters acquired. My theory is the two are related. Inadequate stomach acid levels have been associated with a number of health conditions; could eye floaters be one of them? If so, could a proper blood pH ( normally between 7.35 and 7.45) contribute to the natural absorption of floaters?

SURGERY ?????????? yes or no 😀😀😀😀😀😀Hi my name is Glenda I had cataract surgery a year ago and since then I seem to have a film over my eyes it it’s not like a curtain coming down or going up it’s just in the middle of my vision though and I’ve always had bad floaters but now I have this film that covers it although it does move around but it’s huge would PPV surgery take it away would you recommend it thanks

[@EyeSchoolwithDrD]

Oof. Tough call. I could never tell you my opinion on something like that without examining you. But I would say it’s worth it to find a retinal specialist and get their opinion!

[@Emma-ze3fy]

HI what if you see only a couple dark spots like just 2 or 3 is that serious? And the rest are just regularly floaters I'm also near cited as well and always had one floater at some point but lately I been having more so should I get a checkup?

[@plana4703]

I see one dark spot and sometimes a white sparkle. I'm scared :( do u still see them?

[@JohnGrove310]

you need to remember, a floaters only vitrectomy has a 95% success rate, so when she says she doesn't recommend it, that's shameful on her part as it would help so many. The fact that many like her are hesitant is absurd considering people are fucking suffering. To tell a person just ignore them is simply barbaric.

Floaters are also a good reason for a Preventive Maintenance Yearly Dilated Eye exam, :)

[@EyeSchoolwithDrD]

Yes!!!! One thousand percent!

[@samodell2393]

@@EyeSchoolwithDrD As I stated before I thought it was a good demonstration and example when you did the video once of The Dr getting an exam. Very good demonstration

Cheers for the video content! Apologies for chiming in, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you tried - Franaar Spectacular Look Formula (do a search on google)? It is a smashing one off product for curing eye floaters minus the hard work. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my friend after a lifetime of fighting got cool success with it.

I’ve had them after getting Botox in my forehead and crows feet. So scary

Hi, great video thanks. I've heard a lot about putting 2 drops of castor oil in the eyes to fix floaters and cataract. Even if it's not backed up by research, can it be damaging for the eye at all or it's safe to try it (organic cold pressed of course)? I'll try pineapple as well but the more the merrier if it works. 🙂

[@EyeSchoolwithDrD]

I think I'll make a video about this!

[@AR-kd5gq]

I started with ocular then I got the floaters i had a really bad accident where I broke my neck.

[@jackandzacktv]

Mam for past one week some hairs are seen near my eyes do I ignore or see doctor

[@EyeSchoolwithDrD]

see doctor!

[@thetomschaeffer]

What are your thoughts on MSM eye drops? Safe to try?

[@EyeSchoolwithDrD]

Studies are not there to support. Anecdotal reviews are mixed. Probably safe to try? I don't actively recommend them in clinic. Let me know your experience!

[@dwcarter6830]

Just posted my own floater story and KZbin deleted it after a few minutes. I have no idea why. I think this story is important, though, so I'll summarize in one sentence: Severe floaters can eventually cause permanent neurological deficits as your brain, learning to ignore them, will eventually learn to ignore real visual information as well.

[@johnlee8619]

so how would one go about fixing it? :))

[@SolRayz]

What's worse, my tinnitus or my floaters.

[@elcordobes-i1h]

I have acquired 2 fairly large floaters, light brown or dark yellow in color. This after 5 weeks of cataract surgery. The 2 floaters cover about 20% of my vision. They're very unlike other floaters which are cobwebs or spots of black. What could these be and should I be concerned ?

[@EyeSchoolwithDrD]

Were you seen for your 1 month post op at 4 weeks and they appeared after (just within the last week?) this close to surgery I’d want to take a look if I were your doc. It’s not necessarily a problem but call your doctor and describe what you’re seeing.
